Abstract:
The focus of this work are some of the dilemmas in connection with the conditional release of convicts. The authors adresses controversial material and procedural issues, as well as questions of execution of the conditional release of convicts, which exist in our current regulations. By carefully analyzing the relevant regulations the work indicates certain errors in logic and contradictions in connection with conditional release. The subject of the authors attention is the conditional release of convicts serving their sentence in a penitentiary, but also in the premises in which the convict resides. A part of the work is dedicated to questions of the court procedure in which petitions for conditional release are decided on. Attention was also given to the procedure in the penitentary and the execution of the conditional release. The work, among other things, also highlights who is not eligible for release from penitentiary on parole, when a prisoner gains the right to request parole, who is to be invited to the parole hearing, whether or not a convict can be released on parole when he has served exactly 2/3 of his sentence, as well as parole models.
